Lakshaman Jhula is located 5 kilometers north-east of the city of Rishikesh in the Indian state of
Uttarakhand. The bridge connects the villages of Tapovan to Jonk. Tapovan is in Tehri Garhwal
district, on the west bank of the river, while Jonk is in Pauri Garhwal district, on the east bank.
Lakshman Jhula is a pedestrian bridge also used by motorbikes. It is a landmark of Rishikesh.
A group of Class X students visited Rishikesh in Uttarakhand on a trip. They observed from a
point (P) on a river bridge that the angles of depression of opposite banks of the river are 60°
and 30° respectively. The height of the bridge is about 18 meters from the river.

Section C
26 Let us assume to the contrary, that √5 is rational. Then we can find a and b ( ≠ 0) such
𝑎
that √5 = (assuming that a and b are co-primes).
𝑏 1
So, a = √5 b ⇒ a2 = 5b2
Here 5 is a prime number that divides a2 then 5 divides a also
(Using the theorem, if a is a prime number and if a divides p2, then a divides p, where a is ½
a positive integer)
Thus 5 is a factor of a
Since 5 is a factor of a, we can write a = 5c (where c is a constant). Substituting a = 5c
½
We get (5c)2 = 5b2 ⇒ 5c2 = b2
This means 5 divides b2 so 5 divides b also (Using the theorem, if a is a prime number and
if a divides p2, then a divides p, where a is a positive integer).
Hence a and b have at least 5 as a common factor. ½
But this contradicts the fact that a and b are coprime. This is the contradiction to our
assumption that p and q are co-primes.
So, √5 is not a rational number. Therefore, the √5 is irrational. ½
6x2 – 7x – 3 = 0 ⇒ 6x2 – 9x + 2x – 3 = 0
27
⇒ 3x(2x – 3) + 1(2x – 3) = 0 ⇒ (2x – 3)(3x + 1) = 0 ½
⇒ 2x – 3 = 0 & 3x + 1 = 0
x = 3/2 & x = -1/3 Hence, the zeros of the quadratic polynomials are 3/2 and -1/3. ½
For verification
– coefficient of x 1
Sum of zeros = ⇒ 3/2 + (-1/3) = – (-7) / 6 ⇒ 7/6 = 7/6
coefficient of x2
constant
Product of roots = ⇒ 3/2 x (-1/3) = (-3) / 6 ⇒ -1/2 = -1/2 1
coefficient of x2
Therefore, the relationship between zeros and their coefficients is verified.
Let the fixed charge by Rs x and additional charge by Rs y per day
28 Number of days for Latika = 6 = 2 + 4
Hence, Charge x + 4y = 22
x = 22 – 4y ………(1) ½
Number of days for Anand = 4 = 2 + 2
Hence, Charge x + 2y = 16
x = 16 – 2y ……. (2) ½
On comparing equation (1) and (2), we get,
22 – 4y = 16 – 2y ⇒ 2y = 6 ⇒ y = 3 1
Substituting y = 3 in equation (1), we get,
x = 22 – 4 (3) ⇒ x = 22 – 12 ⇒ x = 10
Therefore, fixed charge = Rs 10 and additional charge = Rs 3 per day 1

Let the average speed of passenger train = x km/h.
32
and the average speed of express train = (x + 11) km/h

As per given data, time taken by the express train to cover 132 km is 1 hour less than the
passenger train to cover the same distance. Therefore,

As the speed cannot be negative, the speed of the passenger train will be 33 km/h and the ½
speed of the express train will be 33 + 11 = 44 km/h.
